trying to source part for bi-fold wardrobe door

Hello,
I am having trouble sourcing a part for my bi-fold wardrobe. the part in question is the roller which slots into the runner along the top of the wardrobe. it differs from all the other rollers i have seen in that it attaches to the inside of the door in the same way that a standard door hinge would. all of the bi-fold kits i have seen come with rollers which attach to the top of the door. I have tried in vain to find this part. i have been advised that it came from a german company which no longer exists. i have attached some photos of the part. would you be able to suggest a supplier which might be able to supply me with such a part?

What's the problem with the one you have? Have the rollers got flats on them so they no longer rotate? If that's the problem it might be possible to find a similar size roller or make one ?

when you clip the roller into the runner you turn a catch which rotates a notch which os supposed to clip the roller into the runner. the notch looks as though it isn't big enough and it fails to clip into the runner properly. i think the part is a bit cheap and nasty. basically i need a part which does exactly the same thing but which actually works. i have the same part at 4 different locations in my flat and 3 of them have done the same thing. i have heard that hafale might have such a part. i have emailed them. i imagine i might have to buy the ehole kit, runners and everything included.
